Question

First time doing IVF and I feel incredibly positive. Should I be managing my expectations better?

Share

First time doing IVF (male factor reasons) and we had the egg retrieval a few days ago and had 22 eggs, 17 of which were mature and then only 11 fertilized. We find out today how many embryos made it to day 5 blatocyst stage. I feel like it should work, but I don't want to be devastated. Then...we still have the waiting game of implementation and making it to 12 weeks. Helps? Suggestions? Coping Tactics?
